Check out the "Vintage" DRN sticker!

NICE!

You know you are going to feel guilty getting it dirty the first time so send it to me and I will put it through a few rides so you won't feel guilty about being the first one to tarnish it (or drop it).

Wardy's bike will NEVER be that clean again.

 

[wardy]

Does Travis know you parked it in his spot?

 

[wardy]

Why isn't there a big fat number 1 on them plates????? I am helping Bill set his 450 up. It will not be done till I get my hands on that sticker kit! You did not go to Casey last weekend? I sure hope I see you at the track this year. NICE BIKE GERHARD!

I had an all white CR500 in 96, that was the bike that sold alot of 97 CR500's for Service Honda. Never could get one to run like that one did for some reason.

 

[wardy]

my 97 ran like that, idled all day long etc. this one has the new ignition so i have to learn the new starting process.
NO Number one this season, only can run that number in the 45+ class which I won, but in the 50+ class the "other" A/F 500 won that and he will be running the #1 plate, Loren Cook,.... which is cool he is a friend and he earned it.

 

[thorman75]

Is that new digital ignition externally adjustable or do you have to "Plug" it in to remap?

 

[nikki]

Looks good Ger! One of these days I'm gonna put white plastic on my CRF... had the plastics kit since 2006, just a little slow getting around to it!

 

[whenfoxforks-ruled]

Now put some white plastics on this bad boy! Travis can have his bike back, or give it to the wife?

" Boy Bill that bike is fast, man it turns on a dime, the brakes are unreal,,,,, But I still like my Maico better" - G Ward, Byron,Il 1995. Witness AJ
"Deep down inside there is a desire to race that Maico, right Ger" It's a calling. I don't even have to ask which one you'd really rather have, I know, me too. :nod:
BTW I put Bob up to posting the pic and yes that is a REAL Wheelsmith engine in that frame.Bill Eyler does a nice job. :cool:

 

[wardy]

LOL i will never live that one down and honestly.....................I shouldn't. It's to purdy to ride bill.

 

[thorman75]

It makes me sick to look at it.Its so nice its disgusting.It would be real interesting to take some lap times on the 2 bikes with either you or Bob Pistole riding on a real 500 track.

 

[wardy]

on a real 500 track

that would be harder to find then a clean 1981 maico 490.

they don't make tracks like that any more.......and NO i am not building another one anytime soon.....

 

[thorman75]

Ahhhh the door remains open "Anytime soon" LOL. There is always Unadilla!

 

[whenfoxforks-ruled]

Gerhard knows a guy, open up Maplehurst! One of the top mud, 5th gear tracks that ever was. And dropping in on the elevator was sick! Natural terrain.

 

[wardy]

it's a gravel pit now and it's got a fork in it. it's done.

 

[thorman75]

What about that all natural terrain track down by St Louis,Mo. Canton, Il was another that was passable.
